Property for sale

Newton Fallowell in partnership with SDL auctions are pleased to present this opportunity to purchase a development with outline planning in Leek, Staffordshire. 

Location

Leek is a Market Town and Civil Parish in Staffordshire, England, on the River Churnet 10 miles (16 km) north east of Stoke on Trent. 

Clustered around a stone-cobbled market square, Leek's well-preserved architecture and historical links with the Napoleonic Wars and the Arts and Crafts movement make it a popular destination for an interesting town walk.

Highlights include buildings associated with writer, artist and designer William Morris, who came to Leek to study dyeing and printing techniques in the 1870s, plus stained glass designed by Pre-Raphaelite artist Sir Edward Burne-Jones in the Parish Church of St Edward the Confessor.

The unspoilt town centre offers a refreshing alternative to from modern shopping malls and has a wealth of independent shops, including former silk mills housing antique and reproduction pine centres, as well as traditional and contemporary furnishings.

The site itself sits on the A423 which runs between Leek centre and Macclesfield. It is seen as one of the Primary routes in and out of Leek and has mised residential and commercial developments along the route.
